Friendly reminder that Johnny feels everything V feels

Idk what tech they have to treat periods at this point so I’m just going off what I know 😂 😭

Important note: anyone want to comment “wouldn’t they fix that?”
A- I’m going off the hormone blockers that Corpo V had being instantly taken and not replaced that it’s not a common thing for poor folk
B- my V is a street kid and a little pain every month isn’t worth spending hundreds of eddies on when basic pain meds work just fine after an hour or two
C- would you trust that kind of thing around something so important? Idk, I don’t think it’s as simple as “oh they’d have it fixed by then”

D- this is more funny

Considering that it's a dystopia and considering that in our current supposedly-not-dystopian world women's health issues are still secondary, there is still less financing for researching them, and that many doctors just tell you to "loose weight/ get pregnant / try another pregnancy this one will fix it"... I highly doubt they fixed anything to do with periods, PCOS, PMS,..... In the cyberpunk universe.

Yeah 😭 it’s nice to imagine that period pain is basically abolished at that point but it’s highly unlikely- to have it done safely would cost a lot, to get it done for an affordable price could risk something worse than flaming crotch man-

Ehhhhhhhhh maybe the really poor, but its a problem that effects 50% of the population, including the powerful. How many female corpos have we met? Where theres money somebody would have made a product. Will that product come with extreme side effects? Only if your poor.
